Governor Phil Murphy this week backed the 2022 reelection of Paterson Mayor Andre Sayegh.

The governor issued his endorsement at Sayegh’s fundraiser at the Brownstone.

He cited Paterson’s pandemic response (i.e., contact tracing and 75% vaccination rate), and economic development (e.g. Hinchliffe Stadium and Hamilton Visitors Center at the Great Falls).

Sayegh next year will be aiming to secure a second term as mayor.
